Hough Can He Raise?

Nick Graham raised to 2,200 and Laurence Houghton called before Nick Holbrook moved all-in for 3,875. Vicky Coren and Nick Graham both called and then Laurence Houghton declared he was going to reraise though the other two believed the all-in to be an underraise.

Now the initial raise was 1,400 on top the blind of 800 and the reraise all-in was 1,675 more so it did not count as an underraise (as opposed to the 4,400 that it might have thought to have been). Houghton was allowed to reraise, making it 10,050 more and Coren folded what she said was Jacks, Graham folded also, and Houghton flipped Q-Q against Holbrook's A-K. The board ran out 2-8-J-2-8 and the 3rd place finisher from Brighton a couple of months ago was out.

Chaz Chattha has doubled up just before the break with As-Kh against James Keys' 4s-4h and Marc Daubach's Ah-6c after he spiked a King on the board, Keys winning the sidepot to eliminate Daubach. Chaz Chattha himself wasn't super happy though, as he'd just lost a 20k pot moments earlier with Queens to Jacks.
